Pregnancy Info HOME

Daniella I was in Yokota Japan before and No it's not in Japan that I can't get pictures it's here in the states. I surf in the net where is the closes one here where I am hopefully we will find one. Best of luck to you and email me some of the picture if you don't mind deemoes@yahoo.com, we communicate so much it's like I know you already I'm excited for you:) later then..

Lisa- Thanks!! Yea, yokota isn't too far from me.. Anyhow, thats so odd that they wont give you a copy. Must just be your dr. because I was just there in July (on my last pregnancy that I ended up losing) and I got many copies.. Plus, all my friends that are pregnant in the states have their ultrasound pics on their fridge. If you dont show any problems or complications the dr. has no problem giving you a pic. So, I guess it must just be either around where your from or your dr. What state you in? ANyhow, I can't wait to be back in Dec. and thanks so much for your kind words! :-)

Lisa, when was your last ultrasound and when is your next one?? Also, how many beats per minute was the heartbeat and did you measure exactly what you thought you were?? Anyhow, I sent you my pics in your Email. :-) Hope ya got them!! :)

Daniella the heartbeat was about 155 and I am in Biloxi MS . I emailed you back thanks for the picture like I said in the email the picture you have on your ultrasound look so much alike on mine thing is they won't print mine out. So if we find a hospital where we can pay and have picture I'll send you some via email:)

Lisa- sorry, I asked you the same question in your Email... Didn't see you posted here. Anyhow, like I said in the emal.... my 11 week ultrasound pic looks like a 9 week one should because its a bad pic and the way the baby was laying. So, maybe you aren't as far as you thought. That would make sense why they didn't see anything at 7 weeks.. maybe you were actually 5 weeks. That would totally make sense... but, obviously that is something you would know. For me, my hubby and I were only together one night and conceived. LOL... the day he got back from deployments. So, we know are exact date and our measurements at 7.5 weeks confirmed our dates to the pinpoint. :-) Regardless, if you aren't as far as you thought, you will just look like your 2 weeks past your due date. lol... no biggie. The thing that matters is that everything is looking perfect now!! That is so great.... Maybe your next ultrasound they will give you a picture. They probably just want to make 100% sure before they do that. :) I'm so glad everything is going good for you!!

Go to www.misdiagnosedmiscarriage.com this website has so many stories of women who were told they had an empty sac and urged to to a d&C, but waited and found a healthy baby. It also covers other miracle stories of misdiagnosed miscarriages. Good luck to all!

I feel fine about my decision I made to have a D&C.... The heartbeat never got more than a flicker in over 3 weeks and then the last ultrasound there wasn't anything at all there. So, mine more like pa__sed away... A little different then just not seeing anything. If you dont see something, you can't really tell if its bad, unless you never see anything after many weeks.

I Had an empty sac at around 6 weeks. I was given a D & C as the pregnancy was not going to progress and rather than wait for the miscarrigae this was a better option for me.

I don't believe anyone should have a D&C at 6 weeks.. That is just way too early!!! You should at least give it a chance a week later, if no improvement, then another week. But, not at 6 weeks!!

when i was pregnant i didnt know till i was 7 weeks because it didnt cross my mind

ramonda- thats the same with my last pregnancy. I never had regular periods so I just thought it was late as usual. Didn't really think about it until my hubby made me take a test. It was a shock and when I went to the dr. I was about 7 or 8 weeks also. But, no way to know for sure because since I didn't know when I ovulated because of my screwy cycle, we had no idea how far I was. But, I had to be at least that far, because my husband left around then. It wasn't until I was at about 12 weeks that we finally decided to have a D&C because it wasn't measuring more than 7 weeks.. week after week.. plus there was still a heartbeat. So, we had to wait until the heart stopped. It was sad and long to go through.. but, I know so many girls that wait it out and then finally get something on the screen and then a strong heartbeat. Unfortunately that wasn't my case. But it happens A LOT. Either they weren't as far as they thought, or it just didn't grow as fast in the beginning. Keep in mind that the measurements, etc. online and at the dr. is ONLY an average. You can have one pregnancy where it grows real fast in the beginning and then slow at the end and then the next pregnancy real slow in the beginning and then real fast towards the end. No pregnancy is the same. So, you just never know!! If you see a heartbeat and then it stops, not much you can do there. Or if your HCG starts dropping, same thing. But, other than that.... just give it time. You never know!! Good luck!!

Danielle, I go in tommorow for my second U/S. I am so scared it has been nearly three weeks, I hope everything is o.k. I feel sick at the idea of going in and hearing the worst imaginable but I need to know already. It's just killing me. I feel like such a horrible person because I refuse to let myself become attached to this child until I know he/she is o.k. That's so wrong! I know it's going to hurt in my heart no matter what but I guess in my head if I try to distance myself it won't be as bad. I don't know. Maybe I should be more positive but it's just so hard. I know I'm rambling and I'm sorry I just don't know what to do with myself. I should just be thankful that I have my little girl Kaley-2 yrs. I was blessed once and if she is all I am meant to have I could live with that because I don't think I could go through this ever again. I'll post tommorow after the Dr. appt. keep ypur fingers crossed. Thanks

Lori- I know how you feel. I've lost 3 before this one, but I haven't had any kids yet. This will be our first. ANd early on with this one I felt the same. I didn't want to get all attached just to lose another one. My husband kept saying that I was crazy because this one is going to make it this time and for me not to worry. Well, it wasn't his body that had to go thru this 3 times already. So, I just dont think you really know until it happens to you. Anyhow... who knows, maybe everything will be just fine! and keep your hopes up!! What makes you think this one isn't going to make it??

Hiya Tamara , the same happened to me with both my pregnancys , i went 4 a scan at 6weeks due the the probs in my last preg , they did a scan seen the sac but no baby , yawomen said it might of just been to early , so she sent me home and said to come back the next week , the next week come around and i went down , they did another scan and the same nothin . she said it was not lookin good , so she did my hcg level and had me in again 2days later , where they once more did another scan and still nothin , but my hcg levels where still rising , she said as they was still nothin in the sac they was gonna treat it as a missed - miscarrage . they wanted to do a DNC but i said no , that i wanted to louse it the normol way . it then took me a further 2weeks to start bleeding . im not saying thats gonna happen to you but thats what happened to me in the end , i wish you the best of look and hope all is ok

Daniella is it just me or do you sometime feel like somebody just pulled something inside you? like your embilical cord or something, there's time I move on my side and I get sharp needle sticking feeling but just one time do you get those? Another thing when I lay on my back why does it look like my belly is flat and can't feel anything but when I'm standing I have this huge belly. Please let me know if you experience this things. Thanks later then..

I have discharge in my b___bs and im just wondering is it because im pregnant?
